Manning valley flood:
- Old Killawarra bridge on Gloucester road,
- new bridge next to it, during construction, and
- the high water yesterday...

Someone on FB says it's 24m.⁩

Luckily it's only that high there because it's hilly farm land, and that's a pinch point, the houses are all on the hills around. But still kinda crazy. I remember being blown away at how high that bridge was when I drove over it last.

There's gonna be a looong recovery in the Manning this winter.

I am so sick of rain!
The east coast of NSW has been inundated with a 500 year flooding event. An East Coast Low has cause it all.
The map attached only show the areas where I live, thankfully I live on a slight hill (blue dot) and at the moment it's "Watch & Act" but it's really bad.
I have a small weather station in my yard and have had over 460mm (18") of rain since Saturday morning - & it's still raining.
It's supposed to start clearing on the weekend.
Sadly four people have died and over 50,000 people have been evacuated. Thousands are isolated.

Biodiversity under the wheels near Repton

"ANGELA Wallace is one of many people upset about the number of koalas being killed on local roads....Little has been done to mitigate these deaths, with another koala recently killed near Repton. “No wonder our iconic koala (dunggirr) is endangered with our roads as ‘killing zones’, deforestation [causing a] loss of habitat, and them trying to survive extreme weather events such as fires and floods.”

"She pointed out that where the koala died, the wildlife fence nearby was thickly overgrown with lantana and a nearby underpass was almost impenetrable due to a mass of lantana."

If an injured, sick or orphaned native animal is found, WIRES can be contacted on 1300 094 737.

I found some data on the illness levels of workers in the Australian health sector.

Here are the trends claims for staff in the Health Care and Social Assistance industry in NSW, affected by Infectious and Parasitic Diseases.

It seems clear the dramatic change from late 2021 is almost all COVID-19. It closely follows the familiar patterns for the known waves in that period, and is a huge deviation, even vs mid-2021.

NSW to review law that presumes children under 14 are incapable of evil

After a 2016 high court ruling, the conviction rates of children aged 10 to 13 have plummeted in NSW, report finds

In 2016, a high court ruling clarified doli incapax, resulting in prosecutors needing to prove the child understood they were seriously wrong when committing a crime. Since then, conviction rates of children aged 10 to 13 have plummeted.

A NSW Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research (Bocsar) report found the proportion of 10- to 13-year-olds with a proven outcome – guilty or not guilty – in the NSW children’s court tumbled from 76% in 2015-16 to 16% in 2022-23.

The prosecution withdrew charges in more than half of all cases in 2022-23, with similar patterns in Victoria and South Australia.

Bulldozing the habitat of endangered species in NSW

"The Australian Conservation Foundation is alleging thousands of hectares of endangered species habitat has been illegally cleared in south-west New South Wales between 2021 and 2025."

"Experts say land clearing rates are unlikely to be reduced without education and effective enforcement..A lot more land is being cleared than grown back or restored which is unusual for a wealthy, developed country like ours."

Day 33 cont 🗣️🇨🇳

“Foreign Minister #PennyWong (#Labor) is telling voters on #Chinese #SocialMedia apps that the #Liberals are questioning their #loyalty as both sides seek to exploit perceived links to #Beijing while continuing to court the #diaspora vote.

Key marginal seats in #NSW and #Victoria will likely be decided on the Chinese Australian vote, including the north Sydney seat of #Bennelong, where a man who held a senior role in a Chinese government-linked influence association (#CCP) is leading a volunteer group for the Liberal candidate.

Both claims show the difficulty political parties face as they try to win over Chinese Australian voters with a wide array of priorities, manage Australia’s #ComplexRelationship with its largest trading partner, and attack the other side over #NationalSecurity.”

Diversity in action.
